Hi Caz

my son had a perforated eardrum several years ago and like Josh was in agony.We were on holiday and he was swimming everyday,got home fine and then about 2 days after he had the most awful earache,high temperature etc and when I took him to the Dr's she said his eardrum was badly perforated.She gave him antibiotics and drops and it did heal but took about a week-week and half for his ear to feel completely comfotatble.Now if he gets a cold he suffers with earache in that same ear.Best thing at the mo is to make sure his ear has some cotton wool in it to keep the cold out until it feels better.Put some warm olive oil on the cotton wool-that helps but dont put any in his ear.Poor thing,it really is a painful condition.
Hope he feels better soon

Hi all,

My lad Josh had a bad rugby tackle last week end, took a blow to his left ear. He seemed ok but when he got in shower couple of days ago he got water in the ear and was in agony. Took him to docs, given antibiotics and told to come back in a week.

Last night he woke me in tears at 1.30 am and begged me to get him to casualty...once there we had a 3 hour wait!!!!

He was packed off with pain killers and told to go to ENT in morning. They were very good there and syringed ear, checked hearing, he cant hear out of it and gave drops.

Has anyone experience of this?

Love Caz xxx
